Why Huawei Mobile Services is Erroring on Xiaomi Redmi

At first glance, the Huawei service error message on Xiaomi’s device is absurd, but there are logical explanations for the problem:

• 📱 Residual files after deleting applications. APK From Huawei (e.g. AppGallery, Huawei Mobile Cloud or Petal Maps), their service processes may have stayed on the system.
• 🔄 Conflict with MIUI Xiaomi’s branded shell sometimes misidentifies Huawei’s background processes as system-based and tries to run them.
• 📦 Infected cache or data, viruses or corrupted files in a folder /data/data/ It can simulate the activity of Huawei services.
• 🔗 Account sync error if you have previously signed in to a Huawei account ID Through a browser or third-party applications, the system could save authorization tokens.

The most common scenario is to install applications from unofficial sources (such as APKMirror or Aptoide), many of which contain Huawei’s built-in push notification or geolocation services, and even after removing such an application, its tails may remain on the system.

Method 1: Remove the cache and data of problematic applications

Start with the safest method, which is to clean the cache, and it won't delete your data, but it will reset temporary files that could be causing the error.

1. Open Settings → Applications → Application Management.
2. In the search box, type in Huawei or Mobile Services.
3. If you find applications with such names (for example, HMS Core), click on them and select: 🧹 Clear the cache 🗑️ Clear the data (if available) ❌ Disable (if there is no "Delete" button»)

Reboot the phone.

If there is nothing similar in the list of applications, check the system services:

1. In the same application management menu, click on three dots (⋮) Select Show System Processes.
2. Look for processes with com.huawei. (e.g. com.huawei.hms).
3. Clear their cache and disable (you can not remove system applications without root rights).

⚠️ Note: Do not remove system applications called com.xiaomi. or com.android. – this can lead to unstable work MIUI.

Method 2: Disabling Autostart and Background Activity

Often, the error is due to Huawei’s services trying to run in the background, but being blocked by Xiaomi’s system.

1. Go to Settings → Applications → Permissions → Autorun.
2. Find all Huawei-related apps and turn off auto-run.
3. Go back and select Background Activity (or Battery → Battery Optimization).
4. For the same applications, set the Strict Optimization limit.

Instructions:

1. Connect your phone to your PC and open the command prompt (Windows) or terminal (macOS/Linux) in the adb folder.
2. Enter the command to check the connection: Adb devices must appear serial number of your device.
3. To see all Huawei packages, follow: adb shell pm list packages | grep huawei
4. Remove unnecessary packets by command (replace package.name with real name): adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 package.name

Examples of uninstall packages (if you have them on your system):

• com.huawei.hms is the core of Huawei services.
• com.huawei.appmarket — AppGallery.
• com.huawei.hwid is a Huawei ID authorization service.

⚠️ Note: Removing system packages can cause the phone to function unstable. Do not remove packages called com.xiaomi. or com.android. MIUI.

Method 4: Reset Google Play Services

Sometimes, a Huawei Mobile Services error occurs because of a conflict with Google Play Services, such as if you installed modified versions of Google services (for example, to work with Huawei AppGallery).

To reset their settings:

1. Open Settings → Applications → Application Management.
2. Find Google Play Services (or Google Play Services).
3. Click Clear the cache and Clear the data.
4. Reboot the phone.
5. After the reboot, open Settings → Accounts → Google and sync the data again.

If you still have a problem, try updating Google Play Services:

1. Open the Google Play Store.
2. In the search, type in Google Play Services.
3. If you have an update button, press it.

💡

Resetting Google Play Services can temporarily disable push notifications from some apps, and once rebooted, they will recover automatically.

Method 5: Complete resetting of settings (last measure)

If none of these things worked, and the Huawei Mobile Services bug is interfering with your phone, you're left resetting to factory settings, which is a radical method, but it's guaranteed to remove all traces of third-party services.

Before discharge:

• 📁 Make a backup of the data (Settings) → The phone. → Backup).
• 🔐 Remember or write down passwords from accounts (Google, Mi Account, banking applications).
• 📱 Charge your phone at least 50%.

Resetting instructions:

1. Open Settings → About the phone → Reset settings.
2. Select Delete All Data (or Reset to Factory Settings).
3. Confirm the action and wait for the reboot.
4. After a reset, do not restore data from a backup if it was created before the error appeared – this can return the problem.

⚠️ Note: Some Xiaomi Redmi models (such as the Redmi Note 10 Pro) may require re-assigning your Mi Account to unlock the bootloader after a reset!

• 🚫 Don't install it. APK Unofficial sources (especially modified versions of Huawei apps).
